The translation of the text into English is as follows: "Submitted on the 30th of April, returned for revision on the 5th of July after the first review, underwent two major revisions and one minor revision, took more than a month from start to finish, and finally accepted in September. The speed was quite fast."

After I finished replying to the reviewer's comments, the magazine changed editors halfway through, and now I have been waiting for half a month without any news.

Two reviewers provided feedback on the paper, one suggesting major revisions and the other suggesting minor revisions. It is uncertain whether the delay of two months in the external peer review process was due to the pandemic. However, the editorial team processed the manuscript very quickly, and after making the revisions based on the reviewers' comments, it was promptly accepted.

I want to know how much the layout fee will cost.

Lily爱吃锅包肉 2021-09-15

May I ask, how much time did it take from the reviewer's agreement to publish to the editor making the final decision? Thank you.

Lily爱吃锅包肉 2021-09-15

May I ask, from the reviewer's consent to the editor making the final decision, how much time did it take for you? Thank you. ?

Lily爱吃锅包肉 2021-09-15

Excuse me, how many days does it generally take for the reviewers to agree on publication before the editor makes the final decision? This waiting period is really difficult to endure~~~

Lily爱吃锅包肉 2021-09-15

After Xiaoxiu returned, both reviewers have already agreed to publish it. Now we are waiting for the editor's response, but it has been 7 days and there is still no reply. Is this the normal speed?

足足 2021-09-13

May I ask if you solved the grammatical issues in the article by yourself? Or did you use any other means? Thank you. Also, I wanted to ask if you used the proofreading service recommended by Frontier?

足足 2021-09-13

I would like to ask the original poster, how did you further improve your language skills? Currently, I also have to revise my submission. One of the reviewers pointed out that there are many grammar errors. May I ask if you check and improve your language yourself? Or is there any other method you use? Could you please let me know?

雨中飞舞 2021-08-18

The speed is surprisingly fast, but I am really not accustomed to the conversational mode of the system. For example, after submitting, one of the reviewers (Reviewer 1) immediately agreed to accept it but provided a lot of comments. Because he agreed to accept it, the system canceled his dialogue button, so I couldn't reply to his comments.

Hello, do we need to prepare the original data chart before submitting to the magazine recently?

博物馆的猫 2021-07-23

I'm not sure about the exact translation of your text, but it roughly means "I will probably take around ten days."

zyoungl 2021-07-22

After being hired, I wonder how long it will take to receive the proof and go online.

博物馆的猫 2021-07-13

It is indeed quite fast. Submitted on April 21st, received on June 14th, with a 15-day modification period in between.

Luya0 2021-07-08

Soon, it may only take about half a month to accept the publication.

mauricetam 2021-07-02

Soon, it took only one month from submission to acceptance, which exceeded my expectations. I suggest submitting Research Topics that are relevant to the field, as most of the editors for Research Topics are experienced professionals, making the review process relatively smoother. There were two reviewers, both of whom were experts in the field and very rigorous. They provided a 21-day major revision period and also recommended that the editor guide the authors in revising the paper. They didn't really require any additional help from the editor, and after the revisions were made, the paper was accepted directly. I recommend ensuring the language is properly modified before submitting.

Here is my submission experience:
May 18, 2021: I submitted the manuscript as the submitting author.
June 2, 2021: The interactive review forum was activated.
June 20, 2021: I resubmitted the manuscript.
June 23, 2021: The article was accepted for publication.

The language requirements are high, and some top teams are publishing on it! In the field of microbiology, the impact factor (IF) is relatively high, but the acceptance rate is not very high either! The reviewers are also very serious, with a total of three reviewers. After major revisions and three rounds of minor revisions, it was accepted!

DAN K 2021-06-29

The journal's trend is very good, but the difficulty of submission has increased, and the speed of review is not consistent. Please carefully modify the language before submission, as the language requirement is very high. Otherwise, the language may be a barrier. Do not assume that OA is easy, as CNS and its sub-journals are also OA!

dawn92 2021-06-19

Overall, it went quite smoothly. There were two external reviews, one major revision and one minor revision. After making the revisions, it was sent back for another minor revision. After three rounds of editing, it was directly accepted. The external review experts were from Switzerland and Russia, and they were very meticulous. Any small mistakes were sent back for re-editing and re-submission. The language requirements were quite high. The editor was also very friendly and we had many discussions back and forth.

dawn92 2021-06-19

May I ask, how long does it take from acceptance to receiving the proof?

大呲花 2021-06-02

The reviewer is very professional and the speed is acceptable.

SUNBURST` 2021-05-10

The overall speed is fast. There are two reviewers, one of whom pointed out some flaws in the experimental design, but it wasn't overly critical, and the revisions were quickly accepted.

tumuge13 2021-04-29

The reviewers are quite professional. Both reviewers had many requirements for details and provided minor revisions in about 25 days. However, in the end, there was a foreign editor who made the final decision and rejected the submission without giving a chance for modification. It is somewhat regrettable, but I will try again next time.

This magazine initially reviewed the manuscript quickly. Two weeks later, they provided the review results. One reviewer agreed to accept it, while the other reviewer finished the review and then withdrew after providing suggestions for revisions. Afterward, there was no contact with the editor. The response from the editorial department was to find new reviewers. It took a long time to find reviewers. It is advised to be cautious about submitting if graduation is urgent. In case you encounter such a situation, it may delay graduation!

Excuse me, esteemed expert, how can the layout fee be paid and which card is used?

木 南 2021-04-13

I would like to ask, how do you pay for your page fees, dear expert? Thank you.
